According to Steve Whitmore, spokesman for the LA County Sheriff’s Department, non-violent female inmates generally serve around 25 per cent of their prison sentence, meaning 24-year-old Lindsay ‘is likely to serve just 14 days behind bars’.

Overcrowding is another reason for a lot of LA inmates being let out early, he says.

LiLo’s prison stint is a result of her parole violation regarding two drink-driving charges dating back to 2007.
